Crappie
If you're looking for a Texas crappie hotspot, consider Kempner. This area provides access to Stillhouse Hollow Lake, known for its clear waters and healthy crappie population. The best time to target these tasty panfish is during the spring spawning season (March-April) when they move into shallower coves and around submerged timber. Fall can also be productive as crappie school up before winter. A local tip: Focus on brush piles and submerged trees in 10-15 feet of water using jigs or minnows under a bobber. Stillhouse Hollow can get busy, especially on weekends, so arriving early is key to securing a good spot. Be aware of the lake's clear water conditions; lighter line and natural-colored baits often produce better results. Also, check the lake's water level before heading out, as it can fluctuate and affect access to certain areas.
